AW140-EG-Z25E

Overview

The AW140-EG-Z25E is a pin header connector from the AW140 series manufactured by Assmann WSW Components. It features a single row with 25 positions and a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. Designed for through-hole mounting, this component supports a voltage rating of 250VAC/DC and a current rating of 3A per contact. The housing material is polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), while contacts are made of brass with gold plating. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to 105°C.

Feature Summary

• Single-row pin header configuration for board-to-board interconnections
• Gold-plated brass contacts ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) housing provides structural stability
• Through-hole termination method facilitates secure PCB mounting

Applications

• General electronic circuit board interconnections
• Industrial control system wiring
• Consumer electronics assembly
• Communication equipment hardware integration

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number AW140-EG-Z25E against official manufacturer documentation to confirm pin count, pitch, and termination style. Ensure compatibility with mating headers regarding height and locking mechanisms. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications. Confirm that the through-hole footprint matches the target PCB design before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row, 25-position header with 2.54mm pitch is required for through-hole applications. Consider the 3A current rating and 250V voltage limit for electrical requirements. Evaluate the operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C against environmental conditions. Compare housing material properties and contact plating options with alternative connectors in the AW140 series.

Part Context

The AW140 series represents a line of standard pin headers designed for versatile electronic applications. These connectors are characterized by their robust construction and consistent performance across various industries. The AW140-EG-Z25E specifically offers a fixed 25-position layout, providing a standardized solution for connecting multiple signal or power lines between boards in compact spaces.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same family include AW140-EG-G25E and AW140-EG-Z20C2, provided the pin count and pitch match the design requirements. Verify mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings before substitution. Ensure that any replacement maintains the through-hole mounting style and single-row configuration.
